GAS-'BURNER TIP.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Sept. 5, 1905.

Application ma May s1, 1905, sean No. 263,037.

To {rf/Z 'Hf/m71]l ft may calm/2771.:

Be it known that I, Enwann Klausur, a citizen of the United States,residing at Chicago, in the county of CookY and State of Illinois, haveinvented new and useful Improvements in Gas-lurner Tips, of which theVfollowing is a specilication.

This invention is a gas-burner tip or jet piece; and the object thereofis to provide improved means Vfor spreading or forming the flamesespecially to produce a fan -shaped `flame of large lighting power.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying' drawings, in which--Figure 1 is a perspective view of one of the tips. Fig. Q is a sectionthereof. Figs. 3, et,

and 5 are perspective views of modileations. Fig. (l is a sectional viewof a modification.

The tip shown herein is preferably formed of metal, such as aluminium,and may conveniently be made from met-al in a tubular form by pinching`and shaping the ends thereof; but it may be made of other suitable orpreferred material.

Referring specilically to the drawings, l1 indicates the tubular body ofthe tip, which terminates at the top in two horns 12, presentedoppositely toward each other and curved to project over the hole 13,through which the gas -jet is delivered. These horns are not open-thatis, no gas is delivered therefrom; but they serve to produce a narrowspace 12" above the jet-hole and by reason of their shape spread the jetor flame laterally.

The jet-hole i3 may be made any shape desired. Thus in Fig. 1 it isshown as a slit extending lengthwise between the horns 1Q. In

` Fig. 3 it is shown as a round hole and in Fig.

I as a slit extending' crosswise. In Fig. -the horns 1Q instead of beingcurved project toward each other in a. straight line. Various othermodilications will suggest themselves, while preserving the distinctivefeature of a pair of horns or projections which extend over the jet-holewith a narrow space between the ends thereof.

The horns may be made solid, as indicated in Fig. Q, or they may be madehollow, as shown in Fig. (3, the variation depending upon the method andmaterial of manufacture rather than upon any difference in functionincident thereto.

\Vhat.I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

l. A gas-burner tip having a jet-hole and the body of which terminatesin two horns on opposite sides of the hole,and projecting thereovertoward each other.

2. A gas-burner tip having a jetslit and a tubular body which terminatesat the top in two horns on opposite sides of the slit and curvedthereover toward each other.

In testimony whereofl have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing` witnesses.
